Apparently Sherwood agreed to take over if he could bring in his own assistants which the chairman didn't want to there wages so Sherwood backed out, Irvine is just a cheap option with a bad record in management, relegating Sheffield Wednesday & destroying a Preston

Clarks record was pretty poor, in his final 36 games under him they had won 34 points, they just had an amazing start under him with lukaku scoring, once the new manager bounce wore off they were like us under McLeish, and he spent £6million on victor anichebe........

He deserved more time, the Mel appointment was just bizarre, they wouldn't let him bring in his own assistants and had no intentions off letting him sign players, was always going to be a short term manager as I think irvine will, the fans are already against him

Someone texted me a supposed screen shot from Wikipedia about Irvine earlier. It mentioned Albion chairman Jeremy Peace who, in the words of the article, was "confirmed to be tighter than a nuns vagina."

I just checked the desktop version of the article and it doesn't say that though.
